Village property has a famous point-to-point link
It was the home of the late Maureen Hogan, wife of P P Hogan, Ireland’s most successful point-to-point owner-trainer and a renowned judge of horseflesh.
In 1982 Maureen Hogan built this bungalow and stables at Lisnagar. She had a life-long interest in horses, and served as the Munster president of the Irish Horse Trials and Dressage Society.
Fermoy auctioneer, Jim McCarthy, puts a guide price of 500,000 on this four-bedroomed house, stable and yard. He already has an offer of 440,000, and is confident of a quick sale.
The accommodation includes a large entrance hall, a fully fitted kitchen with Aga, a utility room, dining room, lounge and four bedrooms, of which the master is en suite.
Outside, the courtyard surrounding the house holds a range of buildings, including a garage, two outhouses, two kennels, two stables, a tack room, and a barn of 45’ by 21’. The eight acres, surrounded on three sides by mature woodland, are laid out in paddocks.
Ready to go as a family home for those with a love of animals, the house will need some freshening-up, says Mr O’Brien. The property is directly behind the school at Rathcormac, which has seen a lot of new developments and which is due to be bypassed, as part of the National Development Plan.
